I ve got a ‘naive’ question, but I am really curious so… here it goes.
Do you intentionally use the sentence ‘does it make sense’so often in your lecture? and if yes why? I feel as if it serves a purpose, or am I wrong?

By the way, my first answer to the question what are u? would be… curious! since most of the day I m (like) that.

I hope you’ll indulge me an off-topic question, and allow me to set the context for it:

I was first introduced to covert hypnosis through a “seduction guru.” When this guru went out to pick up women, he always wore a red dress shirt. He explained that the red shirt sub-communicated passion. His students soon copied this practice and began to refer to themselves as “The Red Shirt League.”

My question is: Do you have a “meta intent” in your choice of attire for your seminars, or is it simply your particular style?

My first blush impression of your dark suits made me think of “The Matrix,” a movie about seeing a reality beyond reality, and of a man who becomes powerful through his understanding of these dual realities. Am I way off in wondering if you choose your wardrobe for the possible associations they may bring to mind?

You’re such a great trainer. I have always been passionate about teaching others, and you are my inspiration. The way you teach this knowledge is so profound, that I have great admiration for your abilities to connect with people.

I learn something ‘new’ every time I revisit your home study programs and online lessons. I am applying this knowledge in my own life and having wonderful results.

How you weave similes and metaphors into your lessons are incredible. I was wondering if you plan this before your presenting, or if you present it entirely off the cusp?

I have studied from you and Brooks and many other trainers and you by far are my favorite. What I struggle with as a hypnotist is with a thought that continues to surface in my mind. I am curious as to what you personally think regarding all this knowledge that you teach us. As a teacher I learn and retain more to help myself as I’m regularly teaching it to others. Have you found that you are able to master hypnosis on a far deeper level as a teacher? I am always studying something, reading something, watching something, learning something regarding hypnosis. I’m always so excited to put something new into action in some ‘real’ application. Do you ever use hypnosis outside the class room, beside on yourself that is?

I always see so much passion on your face when it comes to Mind Bending Language. Is this one of your favorite things to study and use?

I learned a lot from you .You changed my mood.After this video I asked myself who am I?…H+ is very important.I like your training style and I respect your work so don’t stop!useful ,realistic and also understandable.
…and it does make sense!The message was clear,short but clear.Looking forward to see more.
Thanks and regards

Interesting to watch; reading the white charts is difficult, the writing doesn’t show well; it is frustrating not to hear the questions asked from the audiance, which help me in understanding the response; thanks for the facility to save the clip but being an flv file I cannot reply it!

Since my first post I have been recommended a program called “Free Download Manager”, as being safe & working extremely well. The link is below. It worked fairly easily for me. I have been able to download several clips successfully & WATCH THEM SEVERAL TIMES!

I am listening to your program every day, and the more I listen the more emotional
I get and feel I have to learn all this Now.
So that I can begin to help myself then my wife and then many people who are interested
in stopping smoking and in other ways.
I would like to move faster however I feel it may not help me till have I have mastered
what you teach.
I am a language Teacher and a Life coac.I am very excited, however my question is how can i proceed? at a quicker pace.

As a rule the BEST way to make FAST changes is to focus on ONLY ONE thing at a time. If you are trying to Stop Smoking, Learn these materials, Help Others… any new task will absorb your mental energy. The more tasks you have the less energy you can put into each one and the slower they will proceed.

So if you want to speed up, DO LESS!

Focus on one thing at a time. Do NOT let your mind be bothered by anything else. So if you want to learn, the LEARN. Do not think about the future (takes away mental energy), Do not think about applying it straight away, Do not try and use it to help you stop smoking… ironically all these things will probably start happening SPONTANEOUSLY when you internally SLOW DOWN and start enjoying the learning process.

Give yourself a break and let yourself glide along with that process, putting your finite mental energy into that ONE task. Then, when you have a decent grasp of that, you can turn all your attention to the next one!

Great job!
Every step we go through with you is developing my skills.
I enjoy watching and learning, I would love to see more work within the issues of clients. Eg. working witha Anxiety client Etc,
Thank you for your effective work.

What you are asking after is in the Conversational Hypnotherapy programme. That programme includes some Advanced Covert Hypnosis – but much more besides and is exclusively focused on therpy.

Having said that in the ACH we also look at how to apply this stuff to therapeutic issues. The course also has a few demos with people that have performance anxiety, so you do get to see a few therapeutic demos!

With all face-to-face communication depending more heavily upon our body language than upon our words (by a factor of 8 or 9), it is disappointing that so few people care what they’re saying with their bodies, their vocal inflections and their intentions. Your teaching helps bring these to awareness. And yes, it does make sense.

Many, many thanks for helping the world understand how essential these factors are. I have several of your courses, and each new product I study helps me discover nuances and ideas that I’ve missed in the earlier ones.

Interesting subject enough, however, Hypnosis does not work for me. I have been a “willing” subject for over 40 years, and NOT ONE (very professional renowned Hypnotists Programs tired) They did not do any good)does not penetrate my mind even trying brain stimulation, via different sound waves, and sounds/music that stimulate the brain. All to no avail! So, I have just given up on trying to improve some of my bad habits. KEN

Well just improve your bad habits consciously then and dont put the power in someone elses hands..like hes says the magic is in you and the mindset..brainwash yourself into a diferent state…You have to want to feel different but if you enjoy your bad habits and depend upon them for self identification then you wont..imagine your favourite experience musical or otherwise and imagine being able to inhabit that full time as your departure point..you have to create a new emotional/spiritual context as the new measurement of you

Igor, your teaching on this very subject (H+) was one on the things that impressed me the most. This was a major indicator from the very beginning which demonstrated to me your honesty and integrity in what you do. Thank you for your excellent training.

I am not sure what you mean by this question. But if you are asking if you can use the ACH method to help someone with a medical problem, the answer is a qualified yes.

Hypnosis can assist regular medical treatment and do a great job to encourage the body’s natural healing mechanisms. The stuff you learn on the ACH can absolutely help with that, but it does NOT focus on a method for applying hypnosis for medical issues. You would need more specific training in that field to get some guidelines on how to apply hypnosis there!

Excellent video! This makes sense, but I bet if I go over it again and really study it more will info will pop out too. I bet that dressing snazzy is part of influencing peoples minds too, it is plainly obvious to see that the way you present your outer self to people they will respond to that role, even on a deeper more emotional level. Thank you for the information, I look forward to more and will always seriously consider generous payment for anymore golden information.

Uhm honestly the short video didn’t help that much and it is pretty much missing context on what we are trying to do with the ideas presented. Maybe for people with more experience of conversational hypnosis it is clear what Igor is trying to show and do.
Also the comment about rewiring the brain does not make much sense in the context. After all it takes time to achieve that. Again maybe it would help if I would know more of the context.
I agree with one comment that Igor uses a lot “would that be fair to say?” didn’t disturb me however.

thats what he says it takes time to achieve new states…the new context is getting into a different ‘mood’ it’s all transparent what hess saying. Change your mood first and thenyou can change your life..its learning harness that mood and sustain it

This clip is designed to show you some important fundamentals. The first one is to realise how you are treating a person. Most people rush into “doing stuff” and thinking up more clever words. I am warning people against making that mistake.

Then we look at some simple principles in persuasion. The idea that you need to change their mood follows classical psychological doctrine: State Dependent Learning. Feel free to look that up on wikipedia for the research on why emotions are so important in the influencing process.

Finally we get into the actual language – based on the above as a context for that.

The problem with advanced language is that people will often confuse themselves trying to come up with it. So what you are watching is a TRAINING SYSTEM to get people used to the language that is used for Advanced Covert Hypnosis – its advanced, which means that a novice will need to take baby steps in order to internalise it.

That process of internalisation WILL take time. You have to let your brain grow connections over time. But it will NOT do it all at once. So by doing these exercises, you get to STIMULATE your brain to think in certain ways that will ultimately make using ACH VERY easy.

So what you are watching is a training mechanism – NOT some magic formula for influence.

Thanks Igor for your answer. The video is confusing because it is taken in the middle in the seminar and you are referring back to some things that I did not know when I watched it (I know it now).
The thing with the speed of how fast you can rewire your brain is a matter of confusion because the advertisements often seen from your products are often using words like “instant” and similar expressions. Going into the direction of quick/very fast results which is totally contrary my experience, where any solid skill or big change just takes time.
Anyways thank you for the work you do!

Igor,
hi,
your video was excellent. Is it an advance step over your conversational hypnosis course?
What are the ways of buying your course except those given at the end of your e-mail?
thw writer bureau,London have a bank account in Mumbai,India, where amount deposited in Indian rupees is automatically converted and send to them. Do you have such facility? Please reply.

The ACH programme is its own system that runs in parallel with Conversational Hypnosis. They both support each other and balance each other out.

ACH works VERY FAST. But its not something you can use constantly (it would spin people out far too much!)

CH on the other hand is great for long term, continuous use.

Together you have the snappy ACH style for when you need quick results and of course the tried an true CH approach for the long term building of the relationship etc.

As to your payment question – unfortunately we only have the options that Cliff is emailing you about. Our systems can’t currently accept any other payments (its just too difficult to manage more complex mechanisms).

Impressive! Totally wonderful, useful, realistic and understandable. A suggetion – please don’t say “Does that make sense?” and/or “Is that okay with you guys?” so frequently – it is very distracting. Thank you. Susan

Does that makes sense? Almost 20% of Igor’s statements end with this phrase, yet it isn’t really anchoring. More like “ummmmm” and only occasionally he uses it to see if the audience has questions. Is there a reason for this? He’s a really good speaker, but the excessive use of this phrase doesn’t seem to hold any function.

Appealing to a crowd, shouldn’t a hypnotist also include the other trains of thought: Does that sound right? How does that feel? etc. in order to reach those who are not digital thinkers…

“Does that make sense” is a command for what ever proceeded it to “make sense” it’s a teaching tool.

Does that make sense?

Igor doesn’t script his hypnotic language or patterns – it is so engrained in him that it flows naturally. Purposely including other representational systems would be scripting, even when you are presenting to a large group that may have multiple representational systems individually.

I watched this video and the content is amazing, I am at the edge of my seat and cannot wait for your next Video Lesson. I don’t know if it was intentional in your lesson but when you started talking about the 5 question No.1 “who are you?” you did get me thinking.

Who am I. It is quite funny because I had just watched a video by Bob Proctor who asked exactly the same question. Can I go off on a tangent here. Bob went on to say that we are brought up to believe certain things i.e “if you don’t study well or go to school you won’t do well” but this is not the case because our beliefs have no foundations because if we ask our selves frequently why do we believe what we believe, it changes what we believe. Hence Bob advises that we have a control panel and if we know how to control it we can reprogram our selves to do what we want when we want to.

Yes – the initial training questions have been specifically formulated not only to expand your ACH vocabulary, but to also loosen up rigid mindsets that may be limiting you. In order to be an Advanced Covert Hypnotist, you need to be able to go beyond the limitations that we’re all exposed to an unconsciously accept.

Im Desperately waiting for more videos and specially the Advanced Covert Hypnosis DVD/course/WHATEVER I will Buy It.

I can see that your really inducing the person into a TDS (Trans(ce)Derivational Search), is it correct? The real issue comes when the person is into the TDS, searching for the answer (it’s when I block too (What’s Next?)), makes sense?

Yes, you are correct in essence. I prefer to use the term TIP – Trance Of Infinite Possibilities rather than TDS. The reason for this is that its i) more user friendly (it has more inherent meaning to the layman) and ii) it more accurately describes what is happening: the person goes into a mild trance to access OTHER possibilities for him/herself.

Great video, of course Igor. I became aware of the importance of delivery at age 22 when I had then to learn to introduce pauses, and speak more slowly when silly me, I forgot following a major head injury and a coma how to talk and that was the thin edge of the wedge as they say.

I couldn’t speak at all at first, and while learning generated frustrationg humiliation from peoples laughter. However I gradually learned to wing it using covert methods I developed, to disguise the problems I had forming simple language. Instead of humiliation I gradually found then that I had the capability to influence people because of the way I unconsiously developed my tone, slow deliberate delivery, pauses, and eye contact thus overcoming my shortcomings when I couldn’t form the next word or phrase onto my lips at an appropriate rate.

More and more people told me then not how funny I was when I spoke, but how relaxed they felt when I spoke to them. I developed the eye contact because it was my first clue of was I making a fool of myself when I would see signs of amusement appearing on their faces, or was I speaking correctly. People often comment that they trust me because of my tone and eye contact.

I agree with what Keithanthony (As above and So below)had to say about speech and eye contact, as I too had to relearn after a head injury and I found when talking slowly, deliberately (internal) with simple language and eye contact to people that they were going into trance some even started to snore while standing up, including putting myself into trance many, many times trying to figure it all out.

Started to think my stories were so boring that they were putting everyone to sleep including catalepsy in myself when going over what had happened later on.

It has taken me four years of research to understand what was happening over and over again and I can thank Igor and his vast knowledge on the subject of the mind for helping me understand the mechanics of it all.

Keep on churning out products like this Igor and Cliff because you have one happy customer here, that will tell the world, after I have purchased it first of course!

Temper, Temper!!! Does Hypnosis help “spoiled gratification”,lol. Chubby, you should appologise… Igor, I love your teaching methods and materials. I can definately see why many of your “students feel this concept is the key to their fast rise in influence and communication skills” in the above video. It’ll definately help me. I’m fairly new to your programs and am presently going through your “The Power of Self Hypnosis for Gauranteed Results” and still waiting on the “Automatic Master Hypnotist – Advanced Master Class” to arrive in the mail. Can’t wait for your next video. would lie to talk a minute by e-mail if you can contact me. You’re a great and pleasant teacher and lecturer to listen and learn from. The best I’ve heard. I thank you.

Hm. Yes, I’m interested in the answer to Peter Rose’s question as well. It seems that MBL could be very effective in helping to shift a stuck state one might find oneself in. Igor, what’s your opinion on the potential of asking oneself mind bending questions?

Very, very good. The first response does come from the conscious level, and that is who they think they are; that is how they identify themselves.
They are literally in awe of themselves when they access their subconscious and hear what comes out of their mouth.
It’s beautiful to watch.
Thanks, Igor, you do wonderful work,
Gloria

This is very useful. I Love the idea of H+ and it resonates with me and even though the exercise is simpe, the simplicity in it is very powerful. Igor explains it well and I am looking forward to learning some more from him.

Hi Igor!
I’m sitting in Witbank (my hometown) in South Africa and watching your video.Now!who am i(who are you) is a very interesting question.I’m a 43 year old artisan or more specific a “millwright”(that is multi skilling like in electrical,mechanical,hydraulics,phneumatics,boilermaking and electronics.)God created me to be an artisan on machines as wel as on humans and i’m very proud of it.I’m in good health and very excited about your courses.What i like most obout this video is your “black” background so that more attentions will be on you and no mind escaping of the audiance.Keep save and i hope i answered your question in a mere positive way and that is the way i’m used to think.
Thank you very much.

Ok, I’ll ask… when will this DVD program become available? You are putting out such great content… and so often… I am simply blown away! No complaints though… I am eagerly awaiting this program.
I would have attended the event in Las Vegas, but for us Retail people November is a reeeeealy busy time of year! I hate that I missed it…. next time maybe…

For me, it transformed from the concept of enforcing information or a product on someone to instead just opening them up to a deeper connection and understanding of what you have to offer. Somehow, it sounds more wholesome to me now

I thought the movie was exciting! It revealed the intention when use right, it creates a power, when you ask a question with a friendly mood coming from you to the other person to recieve your answer. When you asked that question, I felt the power coming from you just asking it.

I love how these concepts… Change the mood for a better a deeper repsonse… And aknowldge the blan response to help the mood change and ger the person to really think outside of the box and use their inmagination. I am no hypnotist and this is honestly the first time I have ever been really interested in this sort of thing. I find it very useful in my every day. Even in my relationship… Communication is important and this is a way of communicating to really understand one’s significant other and help them come to realize what they are actually feeling. Helps me to understand what she is feeling as well. Great work Igor… I love it!

I’ve become accustomed to excellence from Igor’s work and presentations. This is no exception. On the contrary, identifying ways to shift focus from the superficial to the deeper aspects of ourselves not only sets up a better frame for hypnosis, but develops a relationship more deeply in all dimensions.

Fundamentally, most of us just want to be heard. And we want to be known; even if we deny it. These techniques (not the words so much, but the internal attitude) are pivotal for developing that relationship and shifting the client’s frame to a deeper state. Thanks, Igor.

Hi Igor,
Great video, again. I’m an (theatre)actor and I know that it doesn’t really mean WHAT you say, but HOW you say it. You can give 25 different meanings to the phrase: I know (or any phrase of word). You can even mean the exact opposite from it just by the way you say it. Helps me a lot in my theraputic work.

Hi son , it is very intersting ,but it takes time to absorb every thing I listen few time to your disk, and it’s getting clear every time i replay the video. Thank you Igor. Your message is consistent and I’m enjoying listening to your methods.Thanks for sending me this video.
Warm regards Rayna

your problem with viewing the video straight through could be down to a few factors but is most likely to be your connection to the internet. If you are connected Wirelessly try moving closer to your router or if you have a cable plug in to the router with your cable. Otherwise it may be your ISP (internet service provider) you may have a small download limit or not enough bandwidth. I would try the wireless/wired network first then try upgrading your flash player:

I live in the Scotish Highlands of the United Kingdom and have just started My Own business offering assistance with computers. (haven’t started making my millions yet but hope with the help of a few of Igor’s Programs that I will soon start to.) I hope my information is of help to you and that you don’t continue to experience this playback problem. I know it is not Igor’s fault because I have a good internet connection and the video played straight through.

No matter your presentation, your concepts seem to be sound and your message consistent. Embrace hypnosis, advance your perspective of what is possible and how to achieve it and help those around you to achieve their goals. Actually, I am enjoying the various iterations of your methods.

Great stuff, Igor, but the driving beat in the background is very distracting and annoying. That said, I find your instructional content very easy to absorb and put into practice. Thank you for some really great courses!

the beat in the background is supposed to be distracting. he’s trying to use it and a few other covert hypnosis techniques to hypnotize you. i only noticed because hypnosis works on me but in an extremely different way from normal people. his covert hypnosis is extremely well hidden but i can make out a slight compulsive order toward hypnosis. this is why his instructions are so easy to follow, because he was using hypnosis to implant the steps into your subconcious mind instead of just telling it to you and letting you find your own way through your mind like other instructors. his hypnosis also relates to your comment on how good his courses are because hipnosis gives you a more definite opinion of the user. it doesnt always have the effect on people that the hypnotist wishes but it always has some effect.
